What's going on?

Perhaps a side effect of deforolimus (or placebo) is some sort of inhibitory effect on blogging?

Sorry for the radio silence here, but shortly after starting the trial I got hellaciously sick. At first I hoped the fevers were something akin to the mysterious fevers that struck me 48-72 hours after receiving Gemzar, but it turns out they were probably just an infection. Anyway, I seem to have finally shaken it off, so I'll try to start posting more frequently here.

I haven't noticed anything that feels like a new side effect of the drug, alas. I'll see the doctor and have more bloodwork done in about a week, which might offer a clue as to what's going on. I'm also right in the midst of the expected wheelhouse for developing the mouth sores. If I find any, I'll surely post -- because what more fascinating topic of conversation is there than mouth sores?
